JBA Offroad Upper Control Arms And Suspension MEGA Thread BS thread

Hey guys quick question. Will these arems work with 4 1/4 back space / off set wheels ?

 

What size tires?

 

265 / 70/ R16

 

Yeah they'd fit fine

 

OK sweet thank you! I ask because looking at there website it mentions - 12 and - 9 off set. Mine are - 6 so I just wanted to be sure. I appreciate your help

 

How do these numbers look. I heard and read that 2.5-3 caster is good but what about 3.5?

 

I'd say they are damn good but I am no expert. Odd though they are less than the before.

 

Ya. Those before numbers are all over the place. I installed the uca’s and then the coilovers later and was so far out from messing with that lower control arms.

 

how does one know what upper balljoint to buy for their JBA UCA's?

I bought mine used from @Urineovrurhead back in 2016, but I don't know what generation they are. I found this LINK

Pic from 2016 lol

 

Anyone running the ucas with a 285 70 17 on the 4 runner pro wheels? They are 17x7 4.5 backspace and +4 offset

 

Love these UCA’s!

 

Do they clear the sema wheels without rubbing?

 

Yes. No rubbing at all for me, but I only have 265’s

 

Hey guys, I just want to share with everyone that JBA costumer service is the best. Marlin is an awesome guy to work with. I had ordered a set of there upper control arms and befor I even received my order I had an unforeseen circumstance happen and had to return them. I contacted Marlin and explained my situation to him and he helped me on what I needed to do to return them. Now here is where he went over and beyond. He not only returned and refunded me my money but he refunded me the FULL amount including the original shipping charges. Which he didn't have to do. Now that is costumer service! If one day I ever find my self needing any of the products he offers he will be the one I go through. We all know his products are bullet proof . In this day and age that kind of costumer service is hard to find. A big thank you to Marlin !

 

Sorry if I missed the answer to this, but is he still making these?

Pages for Toyotas don't show any products on his site.

 

I'm guessing there's something fucky going on with his website because I couldn't find any products for any brand on there with a few clicks. I'd call him tomorrow.

 

whew, i was about to pull the trigger on some and got concerned

 

After 6 months I went to regrease my UCA’s, and I noticed the damn shop forgot to install some washers. Now the bushings on the inside are popping out. Is this something that would ruin the bushings? I’m taking the truck back and making them put the washers in.



They look just like this, but I have the washers on the outside.

 

I gave them the instruction sheet, which specifically says the washer order. I’ll look into getting new bushings at the expense of the shop

 

That's the plan
